Report: Latin America's Stablecoin Market Faces Liquidity Concentration Risks

  • —Only 16 of 494 regional companies provide wholesale stablecoin-to-fiat liquidity
  • —Stablecoins accounted for 32.1% of LATAM cross-border crypto transaction value by June 2026
  • —P2P activity made up 22.1%, personal wallet balances 17.6%
  • —The report did not measure actual concentration as the database lacks volume and market-share data
Why it matters: A disruption at a handful of providers could hamper local-currency cash-outs and payments across a region where stablecoins have become core infrastructure.
